He isn't handsome—far from
that,
As manly beauty goes;
He doesn't sport the latest eat
Or up-to datest clothes.
And yet he is more popular
Than all the blooming' roost;
And everybody likes him
For his middle name is Boost
He doesn't wear the latest styles
Or know the latest fad,
But he just smiles and wmiles
When things are going bad
He talks a lot

Of what they have produced,
He sees the silver lining, for
His middle name is Boost.
He has no million bucks a year.
And yet he has enough;
His charity i> giving cheer
When things are lookinu touirh.
Of friends he has a plenty, more
Than money has Induced;
Yep everybody likes him, for
His midule name is Boost.
Get out yourself and boost a bit
And joily fol^s alontr,
For knocking never makes a hit
When things are u iint: wrong
If you should hear a kicker roar,
.lust bump him <iff the roost,
And show the folks your plugin',
For your middle name is
